Touching Story


Here's a truly heartwarming story about the bond formed between a little
5-year-old girl and some construction workers that will make you believe
that we all can make a difference when we give a child the gift of our
time.



A young family moved into a house, next to a vacant lot. One day, a
construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot.
The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all
the activity going on next door and spent much of each day observing the
workers. Eventually the construction crew, all of them
"gems-in-the-rough," more or less, adopted her as a kind of project
mascot.

They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and
lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her
feel important. At the end of the first week, they even presented her
with a pay envelope containing ten dollars.

The little girl took this home to her mother who suggested that she take
her ten dollars "pay" she'd received to the bank the next day to start a
savings account.

When the girl and her mom got to the bank, the teller was equally
impressed and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay
check at such a young age.

The little girl proudly replied, "I worked last week with a real work
crew building the new house next door to us."

"Oh my goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will you be working on
the house again this week, too?"

The little girl replied, "I will, if those a@@holes at Home Depot ever
deliver the fu@@in' sheet rock...".
